Abstract:
Methods of use are provided for the treatment or prevention of poor healing or chronic wounds, skin diseases, sepsis, inflammation, immunodeficiencies, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, allergic diseases, and malignancies, particularly those disorders associated with the skin, by administering an LP229 polypeptide, protein, or epitope-recognizing antibody thereof to a patient in need of such therapy.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of alpha 1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) polypeptides according to SEQ ID No. 1 to SEQ ID No. 4 and/or nucleic acids encoding them, or an antibody or a fragment thereof directed against the polypeptide, or of a cell which is expressing the polypeptide or a nucleic acid encoding it, for diagnosis, treatment and/or prevention of diabetes-associated and/or arterial wounds which heal poorly and for identifying pharmacologically active substances which exert an influence on the expression or function, particularly the activity of ACT.

Abstract:
Compositions and methods are disclosed for stimulating or inhibiting angiogenesis and/or cardiovascularization in mammals, including humans. Pharmaceutical compositions are based on polypeptides or antagonists thereto that have been identified for one or more of these uses. Disorders that can be diagnosed, prevented, or treated by the compositions herein include trauma such as wounds, various cancers, and disorders of the vessels including atherosclerosis and cardiac hypertrophy. In addition, the present invention is directed to novel polypeptides and to nucleic acid molecules encoding those polypeptides. Also provided herein are vectors and host cells comprising those nucleic acid sequences, chimeric polypeptide molecules comprising the polypeptides of the present invention fused to heterologous polypeptide sequences, antibodies which bind to the polypeptides of the present invention and to methods for producing the polypeptides of the present invention.
Abstract:
Members of the serine protease family play a role in carefully controlled processes, such as blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, complement activation, fertilization, and hormone production. The enzymatic activity of the serine proteases is regulated in part by serpins, serine protease inhibitors. Serpin dysfunction is associated with various disorders, including emphysema, blood clotting disorders, cirrhosis, Alzheimer disease, and Parkinson disease. Zserp 11 is a new member of the serine protease inhibitor family.
Abstract:
The invention provides novel single stage competitive inhibitors of plasmin from the Australian brown snake Pseudonaja textilis textilis. The invention also features polynucleotides and polynucleotide homologues encoding these inhibitors. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the plasmin inhibitors of the invention are also disclosed as well as methods useful for treatment of blood loss.
Abstract:
An immunologic molecule, wherein said immunologic molecule does not compete with monoclonal antibody RWR and is capable of binding to and inhibit both (1) human and nonhuman circulating alpha-2-antiplasmins and (2) human and nonhuman fibrin cross-linked alpha-2-antiplasmins selected from the group consisting of a chimeric antibody, a humanized antibody, and a single chain antibody. The invention further relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding said immunologic molecules. 00000
